1990 Map of Tiltill Mountain

About this map

Tiltill Mountain stands as a prominent landmark in this high-altitude landscape where the Yosemite Wilderness and Emigrant Wilderness meet. The 1990 survey captures a region defined by complex glaciated topography, featuring a dense network of subalpine basins. Large water bodies such as Huckleberry Lake and Lake Vernon dominate their respective drainages, while the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through the eastern portion of the quadrangle near Jack Main Canyon. Significant elevation changes are marked by numerous summits, including Kendrick Peak and Wheeler Peak. The drainage patterns are clearly established by Falls Creek, Frog Creek, and Tilden Canyon, illustrating the hydrological connectivity between the high peaks and the valley systems below. This document reflects the management of these protected lands by the Stanislaus National Forest and Yosemite National Park.
